Low-melting manganese(II)-based ionic liquids: syntheses, structures, properties and influence of trace impurities
The synthesis of more than 10 new magnetic ionic liquids with [MnX4]2 anions, X = Cl,
NCS, NCO, is presented. Detailed structural information through single-crystal X-ray di raction
is given for (DMDIm)[Mn(NCS)4], (BnEt3N)2[Mn(NCS)4], and {(Ph3P)2N}2[Mn(NCO4)] 0.6H2O,
respectively. All compounds consist of discrete anions and cations with tetrahedrally coordinated
Mn(II) atoms. They show paramagnetic behavior as expected for spin-only systems. Melting points
are found for several systems below 100 C classifying them as ionic liquids. Thermal properties
are investigated using di erential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. The physicochemical
properties of density, dynamic viscosity, electrolytic conductivity, and surface tension were measured
temperature-dependent of selected samples. These properties are discussed in comparison to similar
Co containing systems. An increasing amount of bromide impurity is found to a ect the surface
tension only up to 3.3%
Providing Information by Resource- Constrained Data Analysis
The Collaborative Research Center SFB 876 (Providing Information by Resource-Constrained Data Analysis) brings together the research fields of data analysis (Data Mining, Knowledge Discovery in Data Bases, Machine Learning, Statistics) and embedded systems and enhances their methods such that information from distributed, dynamic masses of data becomes available anytime and anywhere. The research center approaches these problems with new algorithms respecting the resource constraints in the different scenarios.

Stability studies of ionic liquid [EMIm][NTf2] under short-term thermal exposure
Ionic liquids (ILs) as new media for synthesis and as functional fluids in technical applications are still of high interest. Cooling a steel component from an annealing temperature of nearly 850 °C down to room temperature in a liquid bath is a technically important process. The use of ionic liquids offers advantages avoiding film boiling of the quenching medium. However, such a high immersion temperature exceeds the thermal stability of the IL, for example such as [EMIm][NTf2]. To obtain information about formation of potential toxic decomposition products, potential fragments at varied states of decomposition of [EMIm][NTf2] were studied by various spectroscopic and gravimetric methods. For the first time it was possible to quantify fluorine-containing products via mass spectrometry coupled directly with thermogravimetric (TG) measurements. While chemical and spectroscopic analysis of thermally stressed ILs revealed no hints concerning changes of composition after quenching hot steel for several times, the mass-spectrometer (MS) coupled TG analysis gives information by comparing the decomposition behaviour of fresh and used ILs. A number of fragments were detected in low amounts confirming the proposed decomposition mechanism
